515 Emery Street E

Set on a rare 45' x 265' lot in Old South, this home blends the charm of Wortley with the conveniences of a modern redesign, spanning 3950sq' of finished living space. Composed of 4 bedrooms + a main-floor office (or 5th bedroom), 3.5 baths & a finished 750sq' basement with its own entrance. In 2022 the property underwent a full transformation with a 2-storey addition, a new detached garage and a 550sq' studio at the back of the lot. The renovation included all new windows & doors, a new roof on all new & existing structures, new insulation & all-new systems: furnace/AC, owned HWT, ductwork, 200-amp service with full rewiring, & new plumbing from head to toe. Inside, a bright foyer leads to a connected living, dining, & kitchen space with a 9' island, walk-in pantry & 2PC bath. The addition features a dramatic step-down family room with 12' ceilings, a custom conversation pit contoured by the home's original beams, a 14' limestone fireplace, & a floor-to-ceiling bookshelf made from the reclaimed joists - a testament to preservation. The showpiece staircase is overlooked by an 8' window that floods the home with natural light, & the main-floor office includes a private exterior entrance. Upstairs - 4 bedrooms, including a stunning primary w/ a 6PC ensuite & views of the mature yard. A full bath, 2nd floor laundry & 3 additional bedrooms complete this level. The finished basement adds a 2nd kitchen, full bath, laundry, & excellent storage; ideal for extended family or a large rec-space. The lot is the real treat - mature trees frame the west side, raised garden beds sit along the east, & a new 14'x26' garage offers plenty of utility. At the rear, a cherry on top awaits: the 550sq' studio with 100-amp service & full HVAC provides an exceptional gym, workspace, or creative retreat. This home is two blocks from schools, parks, cafes, & minutes to Victoria Hospital. A complete transformation paired with a 265' lot - this is the Old South standout you've been waiting for.
